If you've been trying to figure this out for years, you're not broken — the approach was
I pivoted my career as a registered dietitian from communications to counseling because I was tired of how my profession was talking to people about food.
Calorie math.
Weight loss as a default goal.
'Just eat less and move more' as if anyone has ever been helped by hearing that.
I knew there had to be another way to do this work, one that didn't add to the shame people were already carrying.

I've been vegan for 17 years, initially for animal rights.
Along the way, I've learned from personal and professional experience how easy it is for veganism to tangle up with diet culture and orthorexia, for a compassionate lifestyle to start running your relationship with food in ways you never agreed to.
I know that tangle from the inside, and I've spent a long time helping clients gently unwind it.

My job is to come alongside you, not to lead you somewhere you didn't choose.

Hi, I'm Taylor (she/her),

I'm a registered dietitian (MS, RDN, LDN) and Certified Befriending Your Body Teacher.
I've spent years building a practice around one conviction: that healing your relationship with food and your body isn't about willpower, information, or finding the right protocol.
It's about learning to trust yourself again and having someone beside you who makes that feel possible instead of terrifying.

I specialize in disordered eating recovery, body image, and vegan nutrition.
I don't use a weight-loss lens. I don't recommend diets. And I will never pressure you to eat, or not eat, any particular way to earn my approval.
What I do bring to this work is a combination of clinical training, 17 years as an ethical vegan, personal experience with disordered eating and trauma, and certified somatic skills through the Befriending Your Body program.
That last piece matters more than most people expect: food struggles don't live only in your mind.
They live in your nervous system.
So we work there, too.

What I stand for — out loud
